When I think of Rory Gilmore, it’s nearly impossible to not compare her to her mother, as they share so many traits. I see in Rory, Lorelai’s brazen independence and perseverance. I see Lorelai’s care and compassion for others. And yet, I see Rory’s passion in a new and different light, with a softer touch, and her own values and passions, and feel excited for the life of Rory that we have not yet seen.

This beginner friendly hat pattern captures everything we love about Rory Gilmore. It is soft and sophisticated, but strong, and full of interest for your eyes and your hands. Perfect for any head and any yarn combination – tonals, speckles, or variegated.

While the pattern is written for DK weight yarn, you can literally knit this at whatever gauge you would like! The pattern of the body is a multiple of 8, and the lace can be easily adjusted with extra knit stitches on the side of the main repeats, so if you want to make a worsted weight hat, a lace weight hat, or a hat for your hedgehog, just do it! Figure out the circumference of your head and figure out how many stitches your swatch gets per inch. Multiply that many stitches by the number of inches you need and cast on that amount!

This pattern is perfect for any yarn, including any random odds and ends lying around? Striping or even single rows of random colors can have a really fun effect on the textures of this hat. If you’re looking for a simpler hat (and let’s face it, less ends to weave in) this pattern would be perfect for a fingering weight and laceweight held together to create a soft and delicate hat. A tonal yarn would allow the beauty of the texture to shine through, while a variegated or speckled yarn would dance around the eyelets to create a truly one-of-a-kind hat.

You will need a circular needle/double pointed needles, stitch marker, darning needle, and any other notions you like to knit hats.
